This Post Brought to You by the Letter Yy and the Number 9

I have been doing little things with Miss M but nothing formal during the summer. I have been printing and laminating and working on a schedule for her preschool and I finally have it mostly planned out and prepared for. This week we also started something new that the kids really like. It is a book I bought, and I love it! I would highly recommend it - Teach Me to Do It Myself. The first section is life skills.

We went over the proper way to wash our hands.

And this little guy did it shirtless because he can get a little crazy when there is water involved.

We also did the proper technique for brushing your teeth.

Then we did how to properly brush your hair (do not look at my dirty mirror).

And then we used the play dough for our other mats - making numbers 9 and 10 and the letter Y. She is getting better at rolling the dough and shaping it.

Another thing I have been letting her do is using free apps on my new smart phone that promote learning. One of her favorites is 123s ABCs Handwriting Fun Set. She can draw the letter, shape or number and then gently shake the phone to erase her writing and start again.

This week went pretty well as far as preschool goes. My daughter loves to learn and so she enjoys doing these activities. We also did some Letter of the Week activities but I did not get pictures of those.

Thank you for reading this post which was brought to you by the letter Y and the number 9.

This about sums it up

“After all," Anne had said to Marilla once, "I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls slipping off a string.”
